Princess was good - had a great time going round the British Isles. Got to places We had never been to without driving. Not been to Hawaii as we are not keen on too many sea days.

Yes. Did you enjoy princess? Have you cruised Hawaii? We are looking at that. Lots of sea days but maybe too much tendering.

I am afraid the cruise market is getting far too competitive which leads to the lower spend on food and port congestion leading to shorter stays. We have cruised with Princess, RCCL and Cunard and all were better than Celebrity however I cannot comment how they are now in this competitive environment. I am afraid cruising may not be as good as it once was. It won't stop us though!

Yes true! two ports were too short for excursions. We didn't do any but heard people were upset. And the chaos on disembarking was real at icy strait. We waited til it was less busy but then we are pretty relaxed. They should have done better I agree. If the food is better on future cruises,. Right on! Some things were not hot in temp at buffet. Mostly it was hard to find a table to sit at. That stressed me out. Next time I would do more room service and go to restaurant. Being our first time, we don't have anything to compare. Hope this helps others!

Not sure we were on the same cruise? Chaos on disembarkation at Icy Strait where many people missed their shore trips. Only a half a stay in two of the ports. Food was mediocre at best with little changing in the Ocean View buffet from day to day. If this was you first experience believe me there is a lot better out there.

I agree. We just got back from Alaska on Infinity and loved the experience. For our first time cruising, we were very impressed with both the ship and staff!
